CARDIFF INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF MUSICAL THEATRE. The first ever international festival to celebrate the art form of musical theatre in all its forms. Three Festivals took place in Cardiff in 2002, 2005 and 2006. Each Festival hosted 100 performances, over 11 venues, of musical theatre, old and new, large and small, encompassing full scale musical productions, musicals in concert, opera, jazz, dance, cabaret, films, new musical workshops, masterclasses, lectures and participatory events for young people.
Over the three Festivals many legendary figures of musical theatre made their way to Cardiff, including Cy Coleman, Stephen Sondheim, Julia McKenzie, Robert Kimball, Don Pippin, Ted Chapin, Peter Stone, Stephen Flaherty, and many others.
